What does a gynecological examination for women involve?

Patient's question:

Hello, doctor, I've been feeling particularly uncomfortable lately. I often experience frequent urination and urgency. Sometimes, I also have abnormal vaginal discharge again. What could be causing this? Is it a gynecological problem? What should women pay attention to during a gynecological examination? Which items should be carefully checked?

Doctor's answer:

Women undergoing relevant gynecological examinations should pay attention to the following aspects: First, a careful examination of vaginal mirror and routine leukorrhea tests are required. Second, if the woman has had sexual activity and belongs to a gynecological inflammation condition, cervical liquid-based cytology (TCT) and HPV virus tests should be conducted. A careful gynecological bimanual examination is also necessary. It is best to avoid overexertion and staying up late, and sexual activity should also be avoided before the examination.
